These are a couple of photographs I took at Christmas with my mum's digital camera and only just got them back. I took about a dozen and these two I liked the best, so I thought I'd share. My photographic experience is about one semester of highschool art class, so be gentle.

They're a little grainy due to the crapness of my mum's camera. Click for bigger resolution. (1680x700)

Those are really cool, I like them a lot.

Thanks. I've added a super-wide version of the first photo.

Very nice work on all three. The composition in the second one is better, but the first is still very nice!

cool landscape

Very cool, but I think it's a bit too dark. Probably not much you could have done about that with a point and shoot though. You lose a ton of detail in just... blackness.. and it just doesn't look good. It emphasizes the light, sure, but i think it would have turned out better if you were able to see more detail in the landscape.

With a better camera it could have been excellent, but I like it.

I kind of like that the entire landscape is just black. Some highlights could be cool, but i like the contrast right now.

I agree, happydud. I tried a couple different things, but I didn't have a lot of options with the camera I was using. Getting the landscape meant losing the sky detail because the light would be too blown out.
